One picture from Carnival led to a few messages and finally a date. On the first date, one of us (I'm sure you can guess) was super nervous, while the other had to reach into a bag of tricks to keep the conversation going. Thanks to a lengthy discussion of the best food and best places to stay in Jamaica, one date turned into two, then three, and then trips to Canada, camping excursions, and a pilgrimage to Jamaica. Along the way, we saw how much we liked to be around each other and how much we laughed together.; it only seemed right to turn it into a lifetime of spicy food, good music, and adventures together.
